Human Waste Carry-Out 

Supplementary Rules 

1. Definition 

Portable toilets may be—

a. A containerized and reusable 

system; 

b. A commercially available 

biodegradable system that is landfill 

disposable; or 

c. A toilet within a camper, trailer, or 

motor home. 

2. Rules 

a. You must possess, set up for usage, 

and use portable toilets for solid human 

body waste during overnight camping 

activity in the following area: Public 

lands administered by the Bureau of 

Land Management in and adjacent to 

the White Wash Sand Dunes near Green 

River, Utah, in the following sections: T. 

23 S., R. 17 E., Sections 21, 22, and 28. 

b. You must dispose of portable toilet 

waste off public land. This requirement 

is effective on a year-round basis and 

will remain in effect for camping use 

until modified by the authorized officer 

or until such time as constructed toilets 

are installed to provide reasonable 

coverage of the geographic area. 

c. Campers at the above-described 

area at White Wash Sand Dunes must 

not bury, or leave exposed, solid human 

body waste and toilet paper soiled with 

solid human body waste. The draining 

of sewage from a trailer or other vehicle 

upon the public lands, except in places 

or receptacles provided for that purpose, 

is prohibited by 43 CFR 8365.1–1(b)(3). 

3. Exceptions 

The portable toilet requirements do 

not apply to activities specifically

land users with information about the 

human waste carry-out requirement 

using signs at or leading to major 

camping areas in the White Wash Sand 

Dunes area. Enforcement of the human 

waste carry-out rules will be taken as 

necessary in accordance with 43 CFR 

8360.0–7, or violators may be subject to 

the enhanced penalties provided for by 

18 U.S.C 3571. 

5. Future Planning 

This notice shall not be construed as 

a limitation on BLM’s future planning 

efforts and/or management of camping 

use on the public lands. BLM will 

periodically monitor resource 

conditions and trends in the area 

described above and may modify this 

notice or implement additional 

limitations or closures as necessary.

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR 

National Park Service 

White-Tailed Deer Management Plan 

Environmental Impact Statement, Rock 

Creek Park, Washington, DC 

AGENCY: National Park Service. 

ACTION: Notice of intent to prepare a 

White-tailed Deer Management Plan 

Environmental Impact Statement, Rock 

Creek Park, Washington, DC. 

SUMMARY: Under the provisions of the 

National Environmental Policy Act of 

1969, the National Park Service (NPS) is 

preparing a White-tailed Deer 

Management Plan Environmental 

Impact Statement (EIS) for Rock Creek 

Park, Washington, DC. The purpose of 

this plan and EIS is to develop a deer 

management plan that supports longterm protection, preservation, and 

restoration of native vegetation and 

other natural and cultural resources 

within the park. A scoping brochure 

will be prepared that details the issues 

identified to date, and possible 

alternatives to be considered. Copies of 

the brochure may be obtained from Rock 

Creek Park Natural Resources Division 

or the NPS Web site (http:// 

www.nps.gov/rocr). 

DATES: The NPS will accept comments 

from the public for 60 days from the 

publication of this notice. In addition, 

public scoping meetings will be 

conducted at the Rock Creek Park 

Nature Center. Please check the local 

newspapers, the NPS Web site (http:// 

www.nps.gov/rocr) or contact the 

Natural Resources Division, Rock Creek 

Park. 

ADDRESSES: Information will be 

available for public review and 

comment at the Rock Creek Park Nature 

Center, local public libraries, NPS Web 

site (http://www.nps.gov/rocr), and the 

Planning, Environment and Public 

Comment (PEPC) Web site (http:// 

parkplanning.nps.gov).

Lane, NW., Washington, DC 20008,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

purpose of this plan and environmental 

impact statement is to develop a deer 

management plan that supports longterm protection, preservation, and 

restoration of native vegetation and 

other natural and cultural resources 

within the park. A deer management 

plan is needed at this time to address: 

the potential of deer becoming the 

dominant force in the park’s ecosystem 

and adversely impacting native 

vegetation and other wildlife, excessive 

deer browse causing a decline in forest 

regeneration and impacting the existing 

shrubs and herbaceous species, deer 

impacts on cultural landscapes, and 

opportunities for coordinating 

management actions with other 

jurisdictional entities.

Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 182 / Wednesday, September 20, 2006 / Notices 55013 

There are a number of objectives for 

this plan. The plan would develop and 

implement informed, scientificallybased vegetation impact levels and 

corresponding measures of deer 

population size that would serve as a 

threshold for taking management 

actions. In addition, it would maintain, 

restore and promote the natural 

abundance, distribution, and diversity 

of native plant species by reducing 

excessive deer browsing, trampling, and 

non-native seed dispersal. The plan 

would allow for white-tailed deer 

populations within the park while 

protecting the natural abundance, 

distribution, and diversity of other 

native wildlife, including ground 

nesting birds, from the adverse effects of 

deer. The plan would also protect the 

habitat of rare plant and animal species 

from deer impacts. In addition, the 

protection of cultural landscapes and 

visitor safety conflicts with deer would 

also be addressed. Finally, an objective 

of the plan would be to call for the 

sharing of information regarding the role 

and management of white-tailed deer 

among park staff, surrounding 

communities, the public, and other 

nearby governmental entities managing 

deer. 

Preliminary alternatives that will be 

considered to meet the purpose and 

need include: reproductive control, 

fencing of large park areas to exclude 

park deer, lethal reduction with and 

without firearms, limited capture and 

euthanasia, and a combination of these 

management strategies. The 

continuation of current management (no 

action alternative) will also be analyzed. 

Persons commenting on the purpose, 

need, objectives, preliminary 

alternatives, or any other issues 

associated with the plan, may submit 

comments by any one of several 

methods. To be most helpful to the 

scoping process, comments should be 

received within 60 days of the 

publication of this Notice of Intent. 

Comments may be mailed to Natural 

Resource Management, Rock Creek Park, 

3545 Williamsburg Lane, NW., 

Washington, DC 20008. Comments may 

also be sent via the Internet at http:// 

parkplanning.nps.gov. Please submit 

Internet comments as a text file avoiding 

the use of special characters and any 

form of encryption. Please put ‘‘Deer 

Management’’ in the subject line and 

include your name and return address 

in your Internet message. If commenters 

do not receive a receipt confirmation 

from the system, please contact the 

Natural Resources Division at (202) 

895–6221. Comments may also be handdelivered to Rock Creek Park 

Headquarters, 3545 Williamsburg Lane, 

NW., Washington, DC 20008. 

It is the NPS’s practice to make 

comments, including names, home 

addresses, home phone numbers and email addresses of respondents, available 

for public review. Individual 

respondents may request that we 

withhold their names and/or home 

addresses, etc., but if they wish us to 

consider withholding this information 

they must state this prominently at the 

beginning of their comments. In 

addition, they must present a rationale 

for withholding this information. This 

rationale must demonstrate that 

disclosure would constitute a clearly 

unwarranted invasion of privacy. 

Unsupported assertions will not meet 

this burden. In the absence of 

exceptional, documentable 

circumstances, this information will be 

released. The NPS will always make 

submissions from organizations or 

businesses, and from individuals 

identifying themselves as 

representatives or officials of 

organizations or businesses, available 

for public inspection in their entirety. 

If commenters wish to have names 

and/or addresses withheld and 

comment through the NPS Web site, it 

is still possible to receive additional 

information on the project in the future 

by filling in the name and address field 

and marking ‘‘keep my contact 

information private’’ where indicated. If 

commenters do not want to receive any 

additional information on the project in 

the future, they may type ‘‘N/A’’ in the 

name and address field.
